First announced last year, Minecraft is making its way to the Xbox One this Friday. And because you’ve probably played it on at least one system before, Microsoft and Mojang have an interesting proposition.
It will be $US20 as a fresh download, but as a special offer anyone who already owns the Xbox 360 version of the game can get the Xbox One version for just $US5. Which is a thing plenty of people are going to do, since 360 content – a version that’s sold over 12 million copies – can carry over and work on the Xbox One version.

It also works with retail copies so buy from EB, pay $5 and return it.

Geez, what about those of us who brought it on PC way back when? Huh, Mojang? Where’s our love? =P

Any word on what version number this will be running?
It looked like there was a LOT of cool stuff in the v1.8 “bountiful update” that there was a story about on here yesterday.

If it’s not far off I’d be tempted to wait for this version to land before I start playing again.
